#ClarksInAWeek Voting Contest
May 21, 2014
I’m really excited to introduce to you the
project I have been working on recently. Have any of you heard of the shoe
brand Clarks? I’ve always grown up seeing it but more recently, I’ve come to
know that it’s not like any ordinary shoe brand. Clarks shoes have a range of
technology that helps to ensure your feet are well taken care of.
Getting a good pair of shoes are important
and Clarks promises you style without compromise. Some of their shoes have
technologies such as intelligent underfoot cushioning which brings your foot
back to their natural position. You also have the GORE-TEX range that is put
together with good materials to get a waterproof and durable shoe. There’s also
the Active Air range, which ensures underfoot cushioning with air circulation
around the foot. There are quite a few more technologies but these are among
those I thought were pretty interesting.
Back to the campaign, this Spring/Summer, Clarks
is running a campaign called #ClarksInAWeek
Voting Contest. Together with some 6 regional bloggers from Singapore, Malaysia
and Indonesia, I’ll be bringing you on a journey through a week in my shoes. So
you will be able to follow the various bloggers’ journeys and see how we have
styled our outfits wearing this season’s Clarks collection.
So the
journey started when I was on the way to the store to pick up 2 pairs of shoes
of my choice from the new 2014 Spring/Summer collection. Was pretty excited on
the way to the store.
Reached the store and started trying on the different
shoes from their latest Spring/Summer collection. They have such a large
selection of comfortable shoes to keep your feet happy all day long. I’m sure
many of you know I love killer heels but wearing heels too often is very bad
for your back. Hence I wanted to choose a good pair of flats that would see me
through the week well. It took me forever to choose 2 pairs of shoes out of so
many as there was quite a variety to choose from!
Once I’ve settled on the design, I got
a little stuck with the colours as I had to pick and plan ahead the best colour
for this campaign. Normally, I love black shoes because it is safe and easy to
match. However, I thought maybe I should get out of my comfort zone and try something
new. After all, it is the Spring/Summer collection! After spending lots of time
at the store, I came back home with 2 pair of shoes!
GOLDEN HENDERSON SILK
This has the Active Air technology that
gives my underfoot great cushioning.
ROMANTIC MOON in LILAC COMBI
This pair comes in black and lilac and
I chose the lilac to give my outfit a pretty pop of pastel. It comes with the
Clarks Plus* technology which has an underfoot cushioning that helps restore
your feet to your natural position, allowing you to move according to your
foot’s built.
I usually get blisters and ugly scars
when I wear new shoes, but surprisingly not with Clarks! They were really
comfortable and proved to provide both style and comfort.
I personally think the best thing about
Clarks shoes is that it goes with any style. When it comes to fashion, I’m very
experimental. I usually dress up according to my mood and the weather. For
example, I love wearing long sleeves on sunny days to protect myself from the
UV rays. Other times, I would wear a sleeveless top to feel more comfortable
amidst the humid Singapore weather. All this talking is getting me
excited, let me just show you how I pair these shoes with my daily outfits!!
MONDAY
Running away from the Monday blues with
this lovely lilac pair of shoes! Although it’s a pair of sandals, I love how
the silver strap gives it a more stylish finish making my outfit look casual
chic.
TUESDAY
Ran quite a bit of errands in Town on
Tuesday and I had to walk around so much. What better way to keep me going than
a comfortable pair of flats?
WEDNESDAY
It rained earlier on Wednesday, so I
decided to snuggle up in my comfy sweater. Felt a little gloomy and was
pondering on whether I should throw on some flip-flops. Thankfully, I decided
on this lovely lilac pair of shoes and it just brightened up my day and outfit.
THURSDAY
With this pair of flats, I feel like I
can go anywhere and do anything! Especially when running errands, these babies
became my shoe of choice! Moreover, choosing an earthy tone was quite smart
because it matches pretty easily with a lot of my outfits.
FRIDAY
Decided to head out for drinks after a
long week at work! Who knows what the night beholds, so I decided to slip on my
pair of golden Clarks. Because of the slight shimmer, it was the perfect smart
casual combination!
SATURDAY
Saturday, my favorite day of the week.
Have any of you experienced having to plan your outfit to fit a whole day’s
worth of activity? Well, it was one of those days on Saturday so I had to plan
an outfit for both the day and a possible clubbing night out. Decided to rely
on my trusty gold flats because I know Clarks won’t fail me. They are so
comfortable, and once again, Clarks managed to play up my outfit for a long day
out.
SUNDAY
The weekend went by so quickly. It's
amazing how times flies! Here's an outfit I casually put together for brunch.
Pairing with these lilac babies makes my outfit look effortlessly chic.
Here’s a video of my 7 looks!
Going through this journey with Clarks,
I realized that despite my constant change in attire, I did not have to worry
about what shoes to wear. I’ve come to realize and believe that Clarks shoes
are suitable for any occasion and any outfit! I hope you enjoyed the pictorial
journey through a week in my shoes!
